Iran Attempts to Launch Monkey Into Space...Mission Failed

"I know what you're thinking...and no, it's a monkey space suit."

Sure they can launch missiles to Florida and have it's leader troll national television with his ramblings, but lately, Iran's just been wanting something a little more.

So they get 5 monkeys and train them for (there's a joke here, but I should take the high road) shuttle launch...

So how did it all turn out? All we know is that it failed...So maybe one of those five monkeys is now a flaming carcass burning away in some desert...or possibly, just as Iranian scientists were tracking the vessel leaving the atmosphere, the blip disappeared. 

The technician shouted confusedly in Arabic, and other researchers ran to see the news he had just relayed, all except one researcher, who sat calmly puffing his pipe as the smoke drifted up past the jet black eye patch covering his left eye.

He did not join the commotion, because he knew the primate had succeeded in what had been his goal the whole time...escape. "He was off the grid," the man thought as he stood up and exited the panic striken room, "for now."
